Man Unknowingly Kidnaps & Medicates His Neighbor's Cat

Briana Hansen

Pets are like snowflakes — no two are truly alike. But, to be honest, it can sometimes be hard to tell an animal (or a snowflake) apart from its similar-looking counterparts. Even if you spend tons of time with your furry friend, that doesn't always guarantee that you'll recognize it from a lineup.

At least, that's what this New Zealand man learned when "his" black cat started acting really strange. The cat bore such an uncanny resemblance to the man's actual cat, that he just mistook it for his own. And, as it started acting differently than it had before (because, you know, it wasn't his cat), he took it to the vet where it was prescribed anti-anxiety medication.

Still attempting to keep "his" kitty calm, he locked it in his bedroom for five days.
